Republicans abandoning Bush!

Everyone knows that the presidential elections are right around the corner and George Bush is trying to work his last Miracles before his term is up. As President Bush attempts to revive the controversial immigration reform bill he supports, the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds that Republicans are abandoning the president, which has dropped his job-approval rating below 30 percent -- his lowest mark ever in the survey.
But he isn’t the only one whose support is on the decline in the poll. Congress’ approval rating has plummeted eight points, bringing it below even Bush’s. And just one in five believe the country is on the right track, which is the lowest number on this question in nearly 15 years. This drop comes as Bush tries to resuscitate the comprehensive immigration reform bill in the U.S. Senate, which has angered many Americans -- particularly conservatives -- because they believe its provisions allowing for a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants amount to “amnesty.” Bush and other supporters of the legislation dispute that charge. I wondered why Americans felt this when it seemed as if Goerge Bush is trying to do something Generous for once and the people don't agree with him. I also has me wondering why his approval ratings didn't drop during the war in Iraq. While Hilary Clintos ratings seem to be going up. Mabye the democratic party will be gianing the majority of the people this upcoming election.

I am not surprised that the republicans are not at all supporting Bush. The pary image is scared enough from his presidency, and now this last minute bill. Bush should, in the best interst of his party, stop. Whatever he is doing, I don't care what it is, he needs to shut up and ride out his presidency, to give the republican canidates a small chance.

I agree, i think people don't trust Bush anymore and he doesn't exactly gain that much support anymore. This scares the republicans that the republicans doesn't have that much support anymore.

I also agree with everyone. After everything he has done, people just dont trust him anymore. Not at all surprising that the republicans are dropping their support
